If the disease can completely inhibit the activity of the matrix for
1–2 weeks or longer, the transverse depression will result in total
division of the nail plate, a defect known as ‘onychomadesis’

2.Onycholysis
The distal nail plate is detached from the nail bed and
usually appears white because of the presence of air
in the subungual space. If an exogenous
pigment is present, the nail may appear yellow (fungi
and exudate) to green–black (pyocyanin).
Diseases commonly responsible for onychorrhexis
include : lichen planus, impaired vascular supply,
trauma, and tumors that compress
the nail matrix. The differential diagnosis includes the
common phenomenon of age-related ridging of the
nail plate.
Nail Signs Due to
Deposition of Pigment
Deposition of Pigment
Longitudinal brown to black band
Common in darkly pigmented individuals
Single band may be a sign of melanocyte activation or
proliferation (nevus, melanoma)
Multiple bands point to physiologic, trauma/
onychotillomania, drugs or systemic disease

DISEASES
Congenital malalignment of the big toenail

Congenital malalignment of the big toenail
Usually bilateral
nail plate of the big toenail deviates laterally from
longitudinal axis of the distal phalanx
the nail has a triangular shape, is thick opaque and yellow-
brown wih multiple Beau’s lines
lateral or distal nail embedding is a common complication
noticed by the parents only when the nails are severely
dystrophic or ingrown
